This week on the Coming Out & Beyond: LGBTQIA+ Stories podcast, we are thrilled to feature film and television producer and storyteller, Frank McGowan.
TW: Frank's story relates anecdotes from his lived experience that describe homophobic-based violence, physical and mental trauma and CSA. Listener discretion is advised.
Frank McGowan's remarkable life represents a mix of hardships and triumphs. Frank, who was born and raised in North Glasgow, was a sensitive, creative child in a culture that vehemently rejected Queer people. Frank's main childhood ally – his mother, Eileen – instilled in him a sense of pride that sustained him through dark days of violence and rejection. Frank has emerged from adversity to become an award-winning filmmaker. As Executive Producer of Bad Pony Media, Frank and his team produce content across all genres for the likes of Netflix, Amazon Prime and Braw TV in Scotland - which will be available around the world for FREE from late 2023. Frank tells authentic stories across series drama, factual entertainment, comedy, documentary and children’s programming - and aims to engage, entertain and inspire.
